    I hope you’re right about that “last hurrah” part! I am desperate for some green!

    What a gift God has given you in your eye for that which is true, good, and beautiful. These images and your words bless me. Thank you for these acts of self-gift; God uses them to diffuse His love! Peace and mercy be with you and your family.

    Fun! Yesterday’s pictures remind me of pictures from the book Stranger in the Woods. My son and I like it a lot.

    This looks amazing. . . Quietly wishing to have that view for a few days. We, however, are waiting for the long rains to come in a hot Kenya.

    Ah, so lovely. Got to the photo of the trees and found myself looking for the owl and hoping it might be there.
    Your photos are definitely ‘top drawer’.
    My hubby had a good laugh at B trying to shoot her arrow. I just had to shown him that post.
    Big thanks.
    Still got snow in my part of Ontario, but you know, the city type of snow…

    Hi Ginny,
    I am new to your site and always enjoy your beautiful pictures and the stories they tell. You are an inspiration
    To me and help me to get in touch with my spirituality. Here in CT, we are hoping for a snow day tomorrow.
    That means, spending time at home with my two boys. Even though they are teenagers, they’re still my babies.
    God Bless You and your beautiful family. πŸ™‚

    Beautiful photos. But it wasn’t so beautiful driving through it yesterday. I was on my way south from Ontario to Myrtle Beach and hit it dead on. The drive across I64 was brutal. We made it, but it was a very stressful drive.

    Oh my! That is a lot of snow. We had flurries here again in the Pacific Northwest this morning, but all in all the winter has been pretty mild.
    Blessings,

    Wow–that’s a crazy storm! Hope your beautiful daffodils made it through. (Mine always seem to survive these late winter storms–it’s awesome how something so pretty is also so tough!)

    We’ve been thrilled with all of our snow, since we went into the winter in a terrible drought.

    We got 23.75 inches. In town only got about 18 inches(we live on a mountain outside of town) πŸ™‚ Hubby and boys are outside right now trying to finish shoveling. I have water on the stove ready to make hot chocolate.

    It’s so beautiful and calming. We finally got some snow (for the first time) a week ago. I always get sad to leave winter behind when I see photos like this!

    You had accumulation. Here, outside DC, we just had flurries and then rain. No snow on the ground meant very disappointed kiddos!
